In the Covid-19 emergency, OTB Foundation donated almost one million units of PPE and specialized equipment to hospitals, homes for the elderly and associations of various kinds, throughout Italy. OTB Foundation supported the conversion work of hospital wards into Covid areas, and incurred the costs born by asymptomatic positives during their fiduciary isolation outside of home. It has also supplied basic food and pharmaceuticals to many families facing serious economic problems. And finally, with the continued closure of schools, it provided technical support to distance learning, donating hundreds of tablets to several educational institutions in the country. The Foundation has also supported the redevelopment of the largest local anti-Covid vaccine center in the area of Bassano del Grappa (VI), with 14 active stations for a potential catchment area of about 120,000 people. Thanks to the proven collaboration between the ULSS 7 Pedemontana, OTB Foundation and the Pengo Company, the building in just 10 working days has been restored and opened on 13 May.
